So, x + y = 42 and y - x = 5;
Then, y = x + 5;
Finally, x + x + 5 = 42;
2x + 5 = 42;
2x = 37;
x = 18.5;
y = 18.5 + 5;
y = 23.5;
Answer: 135 square meters
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The smallest cube that could circumscribe the sphere has a length side equal to the diameter of the sphere
In this problem
The radius of the sphere is 
The diameter of the sphere is two times the radius

so
The length side of the cube is

Remember that
The surface area of a cube is equal to the area of its six faces
so

substitute the value of b


Apply in this order Ι-15Ι - 33÷11= 15-3=12
Good luck!!!
